i guess i don't know what i'm looking for
all i want is for this war to end
i'm done with nights crying on the floor
just waiting for my heart to mend
i wish i didn't have to find
relief and comfort in this blade
the only things it's put in my mind
are reminders of the mistakes I've made
all of these thoughts in my head
are slowly killing me
i want help but they give me pain instead
i'm hurting; can't you see?
i want all of my demons to die
maybe then i'll escape all this hurt
but what if making my demons die
means killing myself first?

i fake my way through everyday
with a numbness inside
my demons are hunting me down
i'm running out of places to hide
they know how to break me down
they know how to make me cry
they know i'm on my knees
i know that i can't hide
with everyday that passes by
a little piece of me gets broken down
soon there'll be nothing left of me
i'll fall without a sound
i've been holding on for too long
it's time to sever my ties
on that last lonely day
rain fell from ashen coloured skies
-----
no need to fake a smile
no numbness left inside
my demons stopped chasing me
i no longer needed to hide
i couldn't be broken down
i couldn't be made to cry
i got up off my knees
i stopped trying to hide
with each day that passed by
i stopped breaking down
there was nothing left of me
i fell without a sound
i stopped holding on so tight
and i severed my ties
on that last lonely day
i said my final goodbyes.
